A clear next step

Nuestro equipo necesita un informe breve para el viernes. Soy responsable de los comentarios de los clientes. Pregunto qué dos preguntas son más importantes. Acordamos una llamada para el martes. Después envío un breve resumen y confirmo lo que voy a entregar.

English meaning

Our team needs a short report by Friday. I am responsible for the customer feedback. I ask which two questions are most important. We arrange a call for Tuesday. After the call, I send a short summary and confirm what I will deliver.

Self-check

Read once, hide the paragraph and answer. Then check the key. This is a practice activity, not a CEFR assessment.

When is the report due?
Show answer

What is the narrator responsible for?
Show answer

What follows the call?
Show answer
A short summary and confirmation of the deliverable.

Transfer task

Rewrite the situation using your own day, place or preference, then say it aloud without looking.

Reference card

These phrases aim for broad usefulness. Use usted forms for the polite singular examples; tú forms for informal singular examples. Plural address varies: ustedes is used throughout Latin America and also formally in much of Spain; informal vosotros occurs in much of Spain. Billete/boleto, móvil/celular and camarero/mesero vary by place. The first term is not universally more correct.

Workplace formality depends on the organisation. Start politely, mirror the form of address agreed with the other person, and explicitly confirm task, owner and deadline.
